What to Expect With a Personal Injury Lawsuit
If hiring an attorney and fighting a legal battle is new for you, the entire experience can feel overwhelming. But you’re not alone; your attorney is your advocate, representing your best interests and guiding you through the process. This guidance starts with helping you understand what to expect in a personal injury case.
Proving Negligence
A personal injury claim can arise when another person or entity has behaved negligently or recklessly, leading to the incident that caused the injury. There are four parts to proving that party’s negligence or recklessness: duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages.
First, the other party must have an obligation to act in a safe, responsible, and prudent way. Drivers, for example, must follow the rules of the road. Doctors must act safely and ethically, putting the needs of the patient first.
Then, the other party must have breached their duty of care through negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct.
If you can prove that the breach contributed to your injuries and that you incurred specific losses (medical bills, lost wages, etc.), you may have a strong claim for compensation. Negotiating a settlement and preparing for a trial requires evidence to support your claim.
Understanding Recovery
You may seek two potential types of recovery in a personal injury case: economic damages and non-economic damages. Economic damages are intended to compensate for actual expenses, such as medical bills, physical rehabilitation, lost wages, or damaged property.
Non-economic damages are sometimes awarded to compensate for harm like physical pain and suffering, mental or emotional anguish, permanent disability, disfigurement, loss of companionship, and loss of enjoyment of life. Your attorney can help you understand how different types of damages may apply in your case.
